Hi there,
What kind of link you receive? The functionality is entirely powered by WordPress itself, it’s not custom built by WPUM.
The user should get an email asking to confirm the request, once confirmed, the admin gets an email and can send the data to the user via Tools -> Export personal data, so essentially, the first email the user receives is only to confirm the export, nothing else happens by clicking that link.
After the admin sends the export, the user will receive a zip file with all the data belonging to him.
Hi Alessandro,
Ok, so I’ve digged deeper into this WordPress function.
So, to make it easier for user to understand what’s going on the only thing missing is the confirmation message that appears when user click the confirmation link sent by WordPress (View image). Right now the user gets redirected to the custom WPUM login page but the message does not reflect the action (it’s the default message that you can find in my question). Is there a way to filter this message?
Thanks!
Yes there’s a filter within WordPress’s core that allows you to do that, see here https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/7ee752e40cf47feb2591711efb8074217b6961f2/wp-includes/user.php#L3267
It’s called
user_request_action_confirmed_message
Although I think it’ll be better if I manage to add some redirect to the frontend of your site and show the confirmation there.
Sorry for being so long to answer, I had a chance to test this filter and it is perfect. Thanks for your help!
